You should also do the flashback sequences in the Prologue in order, from top to bottom (during Roche’s interrogation). The Enhanced Edition of the game added a much needed tutorial for controls and combat options.You can also access these storage chests by talking to an innkeeper. In Flotsam (Act 1) you can find it in the basement of the inn. There is an infinite storage chest that is available in every act.This feels better than hoarding everything to sell it later and/or getting a mod that removes item weight from the game.

With this mod merchants will buy things from you at 1/5 of their selling price, by default it’s 1/24. A highly recommended mod is Better Shop Sale Prices.With the Steam version, disable Steam Cloud, otherwise it’ll put all those deleted saves right back. Don’t do it in-game, find the proper folder on your hard drive instead.

At some point in Act 2 it’s probably wise to delete some of them to make loading times quicker.

The game creates a new save whenever it saves, it never overwrites old ones.

Any imported items start in your inventory, they are not automatically equipped. The items imported are not that much better than what you start with by default. If you have a Witcher 1 save then it imports some Orens (gold) and items, plus it may have minor dialogue influences.Things to Know Before Playing Starting the Game
